Sigtuna Brygghus

In 2005, a group of beer enthusiasts got together and started a microbrewery right outside of Stockholm, Sweden. Sigtuna Brygghus is certified to operate organic beer production, and the brewery is also powered by renewable electricity from wind- and hydropower. What started out as a small project became much bigger than anyone could have guessed at first, and they recently commissioned Crossover Creative to create a new identity, bottle shape, and packaging design.

“To create a distinctive expression in the field of ‘Craft Beer,’ it was decided to decorate the products and packaging with playful graphics, a special typeface, hand-drawn typeface logos, embossing and bronze foil. The products were coded using a clear colour idiom, and each label was printed with an in-depth description of the extraordinary properties of the beer. Through this approach, our aim was to communicate attitude and playfulness without sacrificing the premium aura.”

Sigtuna Brygghus’ new look expresses authority and strength in a modern design. A variety of fonts advertise some of the unique characteristics of each brew, while the label design remains consistent for all of the beers. The amber bottles are a little more short and stout than traditional bottles, an indication of craft beer for the discerning drinker.

Sibbarps Husbryggeri

I can’t say I’ve ever had Swedish craft beer, but the bottles from Sibbarps Husbryggeri definitely make me want to try it. Taking a straightforward design brief, FEW has created packaging that celebrates craft beer at the same time it celebrates the village in which it’s brewed.

Naughty & Nice

Around the holidays, it’s all about whether you’ve been naughty or nice. But can’t you be a little bit of both? Vocation Brewery teamed up with Robot Food to create a delicious seasonal brew that is equally festive and hearty.

Kruk (Crow) Home Brewery

You don’t have to look too hard to find craft beer—which means, of course, that if brewers want their beer to stand out, they can’t just rely on the taste of the beer to reach consumers. Kruk Home Brewery hired hopa studio to create a brand and packaging design that expresses strength in simplicity.

After viewing all the bottle label designs for Sigtuna Brygghus I am so intrigued and love the use of different imagery and elements on each label design. My favorite is definetly Santa. See all the designs below.
